Ford 4000 Hood Decal set Gray/Red 1965-March 1968

High-Quality decal sets

Most of these sets are from a company called Sparex & Riley's that has the rights to create and sell exact replicas of the originals. The quality is what differences us from the rest. We use these same decal sets in our own shop as well. I own tractors that went through our paint and decals shop that still look like new that are over 7 years out. How many other companies can say the same for their decals? So if you're looking for decals that will test the time, these are the ones

 

The best way to apply your decals

Pre-wash the area where you'll be applying the sticker using either soap and water. After cleaning with soapy water, rinse thoroughly with water until no soap or residue remains. Do not use window-cleaning products. They may leave a residue behind, making your sticker cling less effectively.

When possible, you should apply stickers when the temperature is above 50F and below 90F. Place a piece of masking tape along the top edge of the sticker. This fixes it in the proper location. Then, lift the sticker as if it's on a hinge, and peel off the backing paper. While holding onto the bottom edge, slowly lower the sticker, using the thumb of your other hand to press from the center out and gradually working your way from top to bottom.

Wet Method

Mix dish soap and water 5% soap and 95% water. This will give you time to reposition the decal and push out any bubbles under the surface. We use this method the most since it gives you more flexibility when positioning the decal where you want it. The soap will dry within a few minutes and not affect the effectiveness of the glue to bond to metal surfaces.  

Why spend all that time and money painting your tractor and not apply the best decals available? Yes, there are some selling similar decals to us on eBay for much less, but they have no real experience in painting and applying decals and are just mass selling just another item. We have that experience and know good graphics when we see them. We use them every day in our restoration shop. Our customers expect quality and something that will last. Our decals do no fade easily nor are they made with inferior stock paper, glue and decals so thin, they ripe when applying them. You will be very satisfied with any of our decals and paints.
